Monthly Payments.
- 1st month payment of £24.50 (includes an £8.00 set-up fee) followed by subsequent payments of £16.50 per calendar month.
- Payments are collected by Direct Debit on or around the 1st day of each calendar month.
- Should a collection fail for any reason, we will represent and attempt to collect payment again on or around the 10th of the month.
- Failure to collect payment on the 10th of the month will result in cancellation of your Membership Plan.

Attendance at the practice.
- Dental care will be provided at your Dental Practice at the appropriate intervals throughout the year as per the Dental Plan level you have joined. ( two examinations and hygiene per year)

Global Dental A&E Scheme
- Details and Terms of the Global Dental A&E Scheme included as a benefit of your Dental Plan, the cost of which is covered for by your Dental Practice, can be found at www.globaldentalscheme.co.uk
Cancellation
- Our dental health membership plan is designed to reward loyalty and support regular preventive care. For that reason membership requires a minimum commitment of 12 months. If you choose to cancel before this period, any discounts or complimentary appointments you have already received will need to be repaid as our standard pay-as-you-go rates.
- After the minimum commitment period of 12 months, you may cancel your plan by giving a minimum of one months’ notice in writing to your Dental Practice.
Re-joining After Cancellation
If you decide to leave the plan and later wish to rejoin, you are very welcome to do so. However:
- Membership benefits (free check-ups, hygiene visits and discounts) will only restart after 6 months of continuous payments.
Fairness for all patients
This policy ensures that the plan remains fair for all members who maintain their monthly payments and enjoy the full benefits of ongoing care.
